This week, my AOTW is an Empire State Building souvenir thing that my dad got on a business trip not so long ago. It actually looks pretty cool.

I'm not judging you, Microbusss.

Box of Model Motoring guardrail. I have two boxes, with a total of 41 pieces. Have many other colors of rail too. I like the white for the roadway...

I have to agree with Microbus, record pretty lame. So, I am replacing it with next
week's AOTW. Scratch built bascule bridge that I date to sometime in the 1970's.
My only contribution was saving it from the dumpster. The loose cows are strolling
across the parking lot into a burger joint. Have you ever been to a restaurant where
you found yourself saying, "Hey look, they're bringing in the cows for dinner," because
the service was so slow?

The dumpster's loss is model railroading's gain.

| Nice items as always. These figures make the setting life like.  Different lighting conditions to show variance in color tones.  Added a few more figures for setting change.

Is that life like...or  ?

| That does look like a pretty good crew there, Richard. Though, I wonder how comfortable it is for those guys sitting on the bushes.
